THE SPRINT SPECIALIST ALSO HAS ENOUGH ENDURANCE FOR LONGER DISTANCES

Emil is a Youtube generation athlete. For that famous extra mile, which will make a difference, he went online. He studied the world’s best technical athletes in video clips in close detail to then be able to transform the movements into reality. With this method he has become a brilliant technical skier. And the young Russian is fast and really strong as well. In the scene he’s known as the athlete with the best double pole push. Really a sprint specialist the perfectionist also wants to develop himself for longer distance races. “This year I’ve put the focus on becoming more consistent and done a lot less with barbells.” In the Eastern Europe Cup he won the 15 km free style in Syktyvkar in 2017. So he’s definitely one to be reckoned with.
